Their food,…read moredrinks and service all exceeded our expectations -- we were truly shocked at how delicious everything was. We don't have a single complaint! Music they were playing was also so fitting for the ambience. We brought our dog with us, they have water bowls and outdoor seating. They have TONS of toys for kids -- they won't go without fun while the adults get some free time. This is a MUST try!

Stopped here for lunch on the way to Lodi. The service was friendly, personal, and prompt. We sat…read moreoutside so our 5 year old could play with all the toys and we could enjoy the nice weather. I particularly appreciate that the picnic tables all have umbrellas and are spacious and sturdy, which is important for those of us in bigger bodies' comfort. The food was absolutely delicious. The kiddo got the grilled cheese and tots, and the owner Misty even let her pick out her own juice box which she absolutely loved. My fiancée and I got burgers, he got tots and I got the sweet potato fries. Everything was delicious, fresh and hot. The burgers were thick and juicy, and definitely made fresh, not frozen. Misty recommended trying their sriracha honey which was amazing on everything. We had such a great experience and only wish we lived closer as we would definitely be regulars.

Fun bar and restaurant located in the heart of Rio Vista. Awesome service by Jeremy. He was…read morewelcoming, provided great conversation with some history of the area and made sure our order was perfect. The onion rings were house made. Huge with a crisp and crunchy batter on them. My pesto sandwich was bomb! The ciabatta bread was super soft. Cheese melted perfectly. Would order again for sure. My dad went with the spaghetti and meatballs. He enjoyed it and had a large amount of it to take home. This is a must visit for anyone in the Rio Vista area. Large menu with diverse options. Full bar including plenty of beers on tap. Clean restaurant and bathrooms as well. I could see myself and my fiancee taking the scenic drive up to Rio Vista for the some more of their great food and drinks soon.

But I finished it before our burger and onion rings were even ready! Hubs and I shared the burger and onion rings at home and let's just say, great tasting, nor greasy, and perfect size patty.

The food has mixed reviews We were fishing and stopped here for a quick starving bite. Now my…read morehusband's double cheeseburger was enormous.. but he kept saying no flavor. The garlic fries I ended up giving mine away because that had so much grease on them. The flavor was great, but the grease was just disgusting.. I ordered a Ruben sandwich and I literally took only three bites and threw the rest in the trash. I don't know how someone can mess up a Reuben sandwich. But this thing was so greasy and fried so dry that the sauerkraut had a disgusting taste.. as far as my husband double cheeseburger goes, you could feed two people off of the double cheeseburger. It was just that big but no flavor. But for me ordering a Reuben sandwich it really upset my stomach just from a couple of bites. Those garlic fries had a wonderful taste, but they were fried hard and we're very greasy.

If you've ever driven through Rio Vista, you've probably heard of Foster's Bighorn (and if you…read morehaven't stopped in yet, you should.) Foster's Bighorn is a local peeps restaurant and bar. It houses a private collection of over 300 big game specimens from Africa and North America, making it a great place to see what big game hunting looked like in the 1930s. The moment you walk in, you're surrounded by world-class trophies covering the walls near the ceiling. It's unlike any other dining atmosphere around in the east bay. For me, this place is pure nostalgia. My dad used to bring me here once a year when he had business in Rio Vista. I remember being completely fascinated by all the trophies mounted on the walls. Large game hunting wasn't something my family participated in, but growing up in a farming family, animals raised for food were a normal part of life. Even so, the quality and quantity of the collection always left me in awe. Going back as an adult, I can say that feeling hasn't changed. The collection is still impressive. This visit, we kept it simple with drinks and appetizers. My friend ordered a margarita on the rocks, and I had a pale ale. Both were delicious and reasonably priced. The bar itself is a classic 65-foot bar that feels like it belongs in another era. For food, I had the Caesar salad, and we split the ten-inch pepperoni pizza. The pizza featured roni cups and felt like a solid, classic appetizer-style pizza . The side Caesar salad was a great portion with crisp lettuce, shaved Parmigiana, and crunchy croutons, simple and tasty. Foster's Bighorn offers a Chop House style menu for lunch and dinner, making it a great spot for a quick bite or a full sit down dinner. I'd absolutely go back: first for the nostalgia, second for the drinks, and third for the food. It's a one-of-a-kind place that feels like stepping into history while enjoying a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere.

I felt it was dry and the catfish was flavorless, or else it was just so damn thin you couldn't taste it. It was over powered by the red onions and tomatoes.

The employees were very nice and the sandwich was HUGE. I also noticed quite a few people ordering a lunch special of pot roast with potatoes and carrots and a roll.
